Still seeming to miss of the more "beefy" showers. They seem to be able to be going to SE of us.

[SMU]

People not noticed the radar lately how the snow is now banding into Kent & edging NW ( even though the PPN is appearing to move SW in the flow)

Same here! Had lots of light flurries but nothing of significance.... so far!

Lets hope this afternoon, tonight and tomorrow are better for us

Keep hearing pellet like snow hitting the windows in the wind here in Dover... snow has been on and off for a couple of hours already but nothing significant yet.

Yes iv also been watching that, whats the chances of that band becoming heavy like the one we saw over ashford last night ?

[moogyboobles]

Been snowing since I woke up 40 minutes ago. Pretty blustery.

i second that, we had one day of snow here, i mean real proper snow and yes is atill laying but no top ups for ages about time we did i think!

[GSDog]

We've got 7 inches / 18 cm here in T.Wells at the moment, if we get another 10-15cm we could have over a foot by tomorrow!

I've just been looking at that. The development over the last hour has been quite incredible!

[Michael Fishermans Friend]

TEMP: -0.3C DEW POINT: -2.2c wind freshening from the NE, Snow cover 2 1/2 inches - what can we expect later on any great depths?

[tornadica]

Here is the main road between Deal and Sandwich ( east kent)

Has anyone else been unlucky like me to get no more than 2cm of snow this winter. Seams to be a poor place for snow, I might have to move after this winter Guessing anywhere north east of me into central London must be the same.

Keep you posted if we get anything of significance, probably be coming your way - what depth of snow do you have? driving back from work last night didn't seem as bad further inland towards Fambridge way!

[mesocyclone]

Morning all,

Indeed some more persistent snow is edging in. All day Wed here was blue's and the odd Green on the radar and the snow was very light for long periods. However, the sheer persistence is what really helped the totals around here. If its light showers it wont be great if its light persistent snow for 24z you maybe be very surprised at the totals.

[sarah7meme]

OMG! Just woke up and its chucking it down - not much depth wise yet but OH it looks EVIL out there - I hope it gets worse in a "there you go you wanted it way!" Big flakes small flakes hail wind
